The posting

ABOUT THE ROLE

This is an early-team platform engineering role at a seed-stage AI infrastructure startup building an open-source, GitOps-native distributed operating system on top of Kubernetes. You will work closely with the founding team to design and evolve core platform features, making multi-cluster management intuitive for developers running demanding AI workloads. The work spans the full infrastructure stack, from bare metal to production-grade Kubernetes.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Build and extend core platform features in Go, including custom Kubernetes operators and controllers.

- Design and implement GitOps workflows with ArgoCD to make continuous deployment seamless.

- Develop infrastructure-as-code patterns using Terraform and Helm to provision and manage clusters.

- Work on distributed storage solutions using Ceph and WEKA for high-performance, scalable cluster storage.

- Create observability and monitoring systems with Prometheus and Grafana to surface cluster health and performance.

- Build and optimize container networking with Cilium for network security and observability.

- Design and implement federated Kubernetes architectures for multi-cluster management.

- Build automation tooling that reduces operational overhead for developers running production workloads.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- 2 to 5+ years of software development experience, with a strong systems or infrastructure focus.

- Hands-on proficiency in Go, including writing Go in a Kubernetes environment.

- Production Kubernetes experience: managing clusters at meaningful scale, writing operators and controllers, working with CRDs.

- Experience with distributed storage solutions such as Ceph or WEKA.

- Experience designing federated Kubernetes architectures for multi-cluster management.

- Familiarity with GitOps workflows and ArgoCD.

- Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform and Helm; Ansible or Kubespray is a plus.

- Background with container networking, CNI plugins, or service mesh technologies such as Istio or Linkerd.

- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and their managed Kubernetes offerings.

- Familiarity with observability tooling such as Prometheus and Grafana.

- Experience with GPU infrastructure or bare metal environments is a strong plus.

- Contributions to Kubernetes ecosystem tooling or similar open-source infrastructure projects are a bonus.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
